[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They don’t pay teachers enough to put up with the stress and they don’t give them any support either. When I started out teaching at 25, I was making around 45k. I was working 80 hour weeks and my husband was making around 300k working much much less. At the he same time, I had no support from fellow teachers, admin, or parents. Everyone criticized me. I once got a bad review from my principal because he didn’t think I had enough posters or artwork up on the walls. He said nothing about the quality of the lesson he had just observed, my interactions with students, or the materials I spent hours slaving over creating from scratch. As DH continued to make more and more money, at some point I was like eff this nonsense and left.[/quote] That is way more than I made as a child welfare social worker with a masters. [/quote] It shouldn't be a race to the bottom- social workers should earn more too.[/quote]
